There's a function built into the smarty class that allows you to fetch template variables.

Quote from the smarty documentation:

array get_template_vars(string [varname]);
This returns the given assigned variable value. If no parameter is given, an array of
all assigned variables is returned.

Example : get_template_vars
// get assigned template var Б─≥fooБ─≥
$foo = $smarty->get_template_vars(Б─≥fooБ─≥);
// get all assigned template vars
$tpl_vars = $smarty->get_template_vars();
// take a look at them
print_r($tpl_vars);
